We just got t1 internet at my office and it’s made my job so much easier. I hated having to worry whether or not our internet was going to conk out at the most inconvenient moment and my boss took forever to actually listen to me about it. He and I butt heads a good bit and I spend a lot of time worrying about my job security, to tell you the truth. I feel like I’m a really good employee, too, so I don’t know why in the world I should have to. I guess it’s more about who kisses his you-know-what more and not who does the best quality of work at the end of the day. There are times I really feel like I’m just treading water here but it’s a job and I love all of my colleagues. I also get to really exercise my mind, too, which is great for me because I sometimes get bored easily if I’m not challenged enough when it comes to my work.

I keep getting strange mail in my box. It is the weirdest thing. Almost every week I get a random person’s name with my address sent to my house. It’s always like a bill, or credit card advertisement. I usually just write, “not at this address,” and stick it back in my box, but I think I’m going to start calling the companies to make sure someone isn’t using my address illegally, like an identity theft of some sorts. Today I got a cable bill with my address, but with the name Nancy Ford on it. I have no idea who that is! I’m going on www.direc4u.com to see if I can get to the bottom of why I would get that random bill in the mail today. I hope they have some answers for me because this is just the strangest thing, and it keeps happening. It’s not always Nancy Ford, either. It’s been over a dozen different baby names over the course of about 8 months. Have you ever heard of such a thing?

I was unaware of this "holiday" until someone (a girl :D -- engaged though :( ) posted about it on Facebook. Apparently, as a corollary to Valentine's Day, which tends to be girl-centric, it is "Steak and BJ day". So, a girl is supposed to give her guy a nice steak to eat for dinner ... and some after dinner entertainment.

For the record, I will most likely be receiving neither this year. I received neither last year as well.

My caring female readers should correct this.

Other guys, however, seem to have had more success with the hard sell on this topic.

This is one of the coolest videos that I've seen in a long time. It's a guy that uses his finger to break the back window of a car. You have to see it to believe it.

There is some cool science going on here. I am pretty sure that part of it is the fact that he's using fireman gloves, which should transfer a lot more energy to the window during each tap, instead of allowing most of it to reflect back during the bounce. Beyond that, I'm not too sure what's going on in the internal structure of the window.

I just wanted to repost the #Kony2012 video to throw my support behind it as well. For those of you living on Mars for the past week or so, there has been a viral video -- a documentary -- circulating around the internet to try and bring Ugandan warlord Joseph Kony to justice for his crimes against humanity, which include the kidnapping of 30,000+ children.

Here is the original video:

Here is a meme about the video, featuring a character from Lord of the Rings:

Imagine that you're an attractive reporter and you're interviewing a hunky wrestler in your favorite low-cut dress. Out of the blue, the wrestler asks, "Can I touch them?" Typically, this is the fodder for a B-rate porno movie. However, this time the result is different.

Are those real?

Yes, those are real pearls. However, the girl seemed ... disappointed maybe?

Listen. I am going to say something that will shock and dismay Taylor Swift's publicist. Taylor Swift is ugly.

And I'm okay with that. Seriously.

Not every girl in the world was cut out to be a super model. For every Kate Upton or Natalie Portman in the world, there are a lot more Drew Barrymores and Taylor Swifts out there. This is a fact that we should not only accept but embrace.

See, in order to be a good singer, not every girl has to be a sex symbol. Taylor is the perfect example of this. While she's not the ugliest girl I've ever seen in life, she's certainly no Selena Gomez. And even Selena is ... well ... cute, but certainly not going to be a supermodel any time soon either.

And that's okay as well.

I can enjoy their music without constantly thinking about how to get them into bed. I can enjoy them on the level of an artist, not on the level of a pinup girl.

For the record, here is a recent picture of Taylor Swift so that you can judge for yourself. Am I being too harsh on her looks?

I know that the Linmania thing has died down in recent weeks, but I still wanted to share this funny video that I found on Youtube. In it, we have a fan who is very, very interested in the exploits of Jeremy Lin, much to the embarrassment of his wife.

I found yet another cool meme, this time about dogs. The captions are: "What my owner thinks I do", "What the neighbor thinks I do", "What kids think I do", "What I want to do", "What I think I do", and "What I really do". Enjoy!

This is the difference between cock and pussy in America and Japan. This post is clearly only talking about this in the context of lovable kitties and affable chickens and CANNOT BE INTERPRETED IN ANY OTHER WAY.

For this list, quotes from both Montgomery Burns (of The Simpsons fame) and Mitt Romney (2012 U. S.Republican presidential candidate) have been randomly arranged below. See if you can tell which quote belongs to which millionaire without peeking. I couldn't.

I found yet another six picture meme on the internet. This one is about swimmers. The six captions are: "What I think I do", "What my coach thinks I do", "What my mom thinks I do", "What my coach tells me to eat", "What I actually eat", "What I actually do". It's not as good as some of the memes I've posted, but oh well.
